When you first sign in to
OneDrive, you'll be asked if you'd like to automatically upload photos and videos you take on your phone to OneDrive. Tap OK to turn on automatic upload. You can also turn this on from Settings. Here's how:

In the OneDrive app, tap the three horizontal bars in the upper-left corner, tap Settings, and then tap Camera Backup.

Turn on Camera Backup to automatically upload photos and videos to OneDrive.

To see the uploaded photos and videos, tap Photos on the bottom navigation bar, and then tap Camera Backup.

To make sure videos are backed up, turn on Include Videos.

All photos and videos will be uploaded at their original sizes when you're on a Wi‑Fi network. If you want to use your mobile network, tap the three horizontal bars in the upper-left corner, tap Settings, tap Camera Backup, and then turn on Use Mobile Network.

To set your device to upload pictures even when the OneDrive app isn't the active app, tap Upload in Background.
